According to Team Ninja producer Fumihiko Yasuda, the studio has been eager to develop a new entry in their beloved series but struggled to pinpoint the right concept. The turning point came when Koei Tecmo president Hisashi Koinuma and PlatinumGames head Atsushi Inaba discussed the project, leading to Phil Spencer's involvement. Spencer, seeing the potential, suggested a collaboration between the three companies to kickstart the project.
Phil Spencer revealed that discussions about a potential sequel began back in 2017 during his initial talks with Team Ninja. After years of back-and-forth, they found the ideal partner in PlatinumGames, known for their expertise in crafting fast-paced action games like Bayonetta and NieR: Automata.
Last week saw the exciting announcement of Ninja Gaiden 4, accompanied by the surprise re-release of Ninja Gaiden 2 Black, an enhanced version of the Xbox 360 classic, now available on Xbox, PS5, and PC.
The debut trailer hints that the iconic ninja, Ryu Hayabusa, will once again take center stage in this action-packed adventure. The gameplay trailer showcases new mechanics unique to Ninja Gaiden 4, such as the ability to swiftly navigate environments using wires and rails, promising an exhilarating experience distinct from its predecessors.
While DOOM: The Dark Ages was the main draw at Developer_Direct for many gamers, Ninja Gaiden 4 also made waves. As a sequel to Koei Tecmo's popular series, it was unveiled during the broadcast and is set to launch in the fall of 2025.
